Archive: ). ContentShell.apk Info:. Use a Chromium. Source. Obviously, you know this site is not the Chromium official website. As a regular user (not an expert), I created it in 2013 because I did not find a simple way to download good releases.
I try to keep it as and as possible!;) This is absolutely a non-profit site. Please, read the (on the right-hand side). In short:. The is development oriented. Users are invited to download Google Chrome. The gives to users only ZIP archives of development builds (also known as 'Snapshot', 'Nightly' or 'Raw' builds) which can be very unstable.
This site gives to users a choice of builds: development (also on its ), stable and portable builds. All downloads are only from reliable sources:. → development builds from the official repository (Chromium buildbot).
and → other free and open-source builds Chromium exists since. It is the free and open-source project behind the famous browser. There are for an enterprise to work on an open-source project. Intrinsically, maintained by many (developers, engineers, graphic designers, security researchers.) from Google, Adobe, Cloudflare, Facebook, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Intel, Microsoft, Mozilla, Nike, Nvidia, Samsung, Vivaldi, Yandex. And external contributors.
Chromium is not only a web browser. It is a blend of different open-source projects:. (a graphics engine abstraction layer). (a rendering/layout engine). (a sandbox for running native code). (a PDF generation and rendering library). (a security mechanism for separating running programs).
(a graphics library). (a JavaScript engine). and others. These projects are used in Chromium browser (obviously!) and other software like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Vivaldi, MS Edge, Skype, Spotify, Steam, Minecraft, TeamViewer, WhatsApp, Twitch, Android WebView, Microsoft Visual Studio Code, Adobe Acrobat,. For example, Firefox uses some stuff of Chromium (, ANGLE, Skia, ) on Windows. MS Edge uses currently ANGLE on Windows and Blink on Android.
Since December 2018,. Chromium is not fully designed by Google! However, as a primary investor, Google gives a consistent guidance and provides all free tools and services related to this project. Chromium is the project then Google Chrome is the product. Officially, Chromium does not have a stable release. The official developers (aka The Chromium Authors) do not release it to end users. So it is continually in development.
Google Chrome is the stable release. But is not open-source.
In fact, Chromium has a stable version. ^^ Example: The current stable on is 71. In this version, there are 98 patches which correct many issues (bugs, feature requests, enhancements.). Because Chromium is open-source , anybody can compile it.
You must be a developer to do this. Just get the from the official Git repository and compile it! All stable versions of Chromium on,. Are always made by third-party developers. The stable version of Chromium is compiled by:. Google developers →. Opera developers →.
Yandex developers →. Vivaldi developers →. Nik developer → Chromium, on.
FreeSMUG and Marmaduke developers → Chromium, on. Some developers → Chromium, on each and distribution. Some developers →. Some developers → other projects like,. The development builds (also known as 'snapshot', 'nightly' or 'raw' builds) are built automatically several times a day by the Chromium Buildbot and made available as binary code releases. Snapshot Once a snapshot has been built, it is placed in a directory in the root directory of and it is.
This build is really just development tool for checking whether issues are fixed in the latest Chromium code. It can be buggy and unstable. They are downloadable on the, my and this site (Check The Chromium Authors tag). LKGR If that snapshot build successfully passes the automated tests, it is considered as a good build (known as LKGR meaning 'Last Known Good Revision') and can become potentially a stable build. For info, LKGR builds were stored in the root directory until Friday, 18 Mar 2016. The Chromium team has removed few LKGR builders (, and ) but other ones still work (, ).
Finally, there is no LKGR binary shared by the Chromium team. But any developer can re-compile it!
^^ Stable Finally, a stable build is a development build tested by the Buildbot then improved by the Chromium team and all contributors. Note this entire website ( and included) is auto-updated each hour by the server itself. Thanks for your attention.

Why not recommended? Because all of these browsers are closed-source, outdated, based on Chromium like Google Chrome. And most of the features they remove don't even exist in Chromium, in the first place. Control your personal info and yourself ^^ Moreover, InsanityBit explains this very well on his blog: (2012.

Do not forget: It is open-source does not mean it is secure and respects user privacy. Moreover, security ≠ privacy.
If your browser is fully 'open-source', it means that somebody with the capability can review the. It is easier for developers to find malicious code with versioning tools like SVN or Git. (Ex: → corrected 7 days after the report). Only an open-source code allows such defense. This is better for secure browsing and user privacy. The is very solid.
While I recommend Firefox as the most reliable browser for privacy enthusiasts in a standard web browsing (cf. Settings, and ad blocking extensions), Chromium is probably a reasonable alternative for everyday web browsing. My way (but do as you like ^^):. Modify your to stop 'natively' domains who serve ads, spyware and malware. Use a VPN with strong encryption for your whole OS or router (It is better than browser VPN/proxy ). Use an up-to-date web browser.
Change few. Install few You cannot be anonymous on web even using a VPN or TOR network. It is a myth that you cannot be tracked online. If you exist, you are findable.
There a lot of technologies to get user data. Read the for more information. However, you can protect your privacy against tracking and profiling tools.
These tracking tools are everywhere today: on the web (website, app.), at home (computer, phone, router, smart TV, smart bulb, smart grid.), in your car (GPS system, connected car.), in the street (video surveillance camera.), at your ISP and other. You can find them in firmware (hardware) and software (operating system, app, website, extension.). The reason for updating to the latest version is security. As security threats are found, they are fixed. Using an old version expose user to a number of security holes and privacy issues. Browsers are far more subject to hacking than other software. Adjust all settings and advanced settings in:.
Do not log in with a Google account. Do not save passwords in the browser (Prefer a free and open-source password manager like or ). Enable the (or private) mode (Ctrl+Shift+N shortcut. Use a to start Chromium in this mode). Disable all options in the 'Privacy and security' section because most of them use an external Google service. (Ex: 'Safe Browsing' option uses.

Your antivirus has detected a in Chromium files. False positive?
You have downloaded Chromium from a reliable source and maybe also used an open-source. In this case, it is surely a false positive. The detection is generic (heuristic). There is absolutely no backdoor or other malware inside. Remember that the full is available. You will get a similar result if you compile Chromium yourself.
Note a specific thing to Chromium browser:. Chromium has no (unlike Google Chrome). Antivirus use generic detection and database of malware signatures. which aggregates many antivirus is a Google service using its for software like Google Chrome (because it is digitally signed), not for Chromium.
So, unsigned Chromium + any antivirus or VirusTotal service = More chance to get an antivirus alert. False positive reports known for few years ago:. (2018. Avast antivirus.

It means Chromium has been silently installed via another software. Do not forget Chromium is free and open-source. So malware writers use Chromium to push malicious code on to your system.
Remove this 'fake' Chromium version or suspicious web browser (like BeagleBrowser, BoBrowser, BrowserAir, Chedot, eFast Browser, Fusion Browser, Mustang Browser, MyBrowser, Olcinium Browser, Palikan, Qword Browser, Tortuga Browser.).

It is just the standard Ungoogled build without safe browsing patches, the build fails at the 'gn' generation part, but you can get a gn binary from the net or build it yourself. @marmaduke: Thank you very much for your all builds.

It is recommended to read the FAQ before to use it. @Evan: I used the Cloudflare DNS the whole day and did not see your DNS issue.
Anycast works properly on my Web hosting service. I do not use a CDN. I sincerely hope it is a temporary issue. You are the only one I know with this issue. @Dustyn: Nik is busy!;). EDIT: 17 december 2018 @Evan: Probably you!;) @Anon4120: Sure, it may be possible. Example: Are you able to connect to with Cloudflare DNS?
This is a famous website. I have a SSLERRORNOCYPHEROVERLAP result on all stable browsers with an updated Windows 10 Pro 1803. I haven't got this problem with other and my ISP's DNS. I understand in this case it is a misconfigured domain but why only Cloudflare DNS cannot resolve it?
Note I removed your confusing nickname;) @Anon4121: About codecs, follow the Nik's tutorial. @Jerry, Regarding CloudFlare DNS.
I have experience many random DNS resolution issues with seemingly random web sites since CloudFlare DNS inception. Not specifically your web site, but simply just random sites at random times. Usually I just have to refresh 4-5 times and finally the DNS resolution occurs in these random (yet somewhat rare) occasions. I had even spent time searching CloudFlare forums and found several threads on the same very issue. But yet, to this very day, this random DNS resolution issue still occurs.
I only notice it once or twice per week, maybe. But I am surprised that such a big networking company of CloudFlare's stature cannot fix this as of yet. It used to happen more often to the point where I switched away from CloudFlare DNS for several months.
Now it does not happen as often and I've just learned to tolerate it in hopes that they will fix it one day. @WildByDesign: I used Cloudflare and Yandex DNS servers in the past and saw similar errors.
That is why I prefer finally to use my ISP's DNS. No issue like these. @Evan: I can manage DNS types (A, AAAA, MX, CNAME.) but I choose Anycast for authoritative name servers managed by my Web hosting service to improve the speed and reliability. I am not an expert. So I think badly I cannot fix this issue for 'BOM' and other domain zones.
Personally, my zone is 'CDG' (Result of the following command in Windows Command Prompt: nslookup -class=chaos -type=txt id.server 1.1.1.1) and I haven't got issue like yours. I ask my Web hosting service.@Anon4126: 'ungoogled-chromium' is Google Chromium, sans integration with Google. It also features some tweaks to enhance privacy, control, and transparency (almost all of which require manual activation or enabling). Implicitly, I understand it works like with the 'Incognito' mode by default. It is similar to Firefox Focus on Android and other browsers in this category.
deleting in them by default without any notification is a bad practice. I totally agree with you.
